I was in Mexico City in the beginning of February and the weather was perfect. It wasn't humid, either. I was wearing just a shirt. I think their summers might be nice, too. Yeah, looks pretty good all year round, a little bit on the cooler side, though.

Best Climate
I'll go with the coastal zone of San Diego. Going east however it gets much hotter and uncomfortable.

Northern California probably. I think Northern/Central Italy is pretty nice too.

Mexico City & Bogota, Colombia are great. They always feel like Spring.

Among the places where I've been to :
- SoCal
- Canary islands
(both, year round)
- Mexico central Pacific coast (winter only)
I used to say continental Spain, but I've noticed that it's too hot in summer and too cold in winter. The same applies to Italy .

California coast (North, Central and South)
There is heaven...
But I love this climate where I live, too... mild winters, warm springs, hot summers, and sunny but windy autumn...  |

Have you ever been to Northern CA? Hardly a perfect climate in my book. Not even nice... SoCal is great, of course.
The Mediterranean climate is good as well. Europe also doesn't have the natural disasters that abound in CA. |

The perfect climate depends on the individual. I prefer warmer climates so the tropical areas are the perfect climate for me. Others may prefer colder weather ao they can ski or whatever so they'll think that colder climates are perfect. Some people prefer something in the middle, so they'll pick places that fit what they like. So with that said, there really is no perfect climate, but every climate is potentially perfect, depending on who is answering.

10 years ago, as I become 50, I decided to quit, and wanted to enjoy life in the best places and the best way I can.
I want very good climate, nice home with sea-view, great food and services, impeccable and safe environment, great entertainment choices. All this for reasonable prices.
Here are my best choices.
In America:
I lived 8 years in Orange County,Ca, in the Newport Beach area. With summer average temp 24 C, and winter average 16 C, and constant sunshine, friendly and easygoing CA lifestyle, this place from LosAngeles to San Diego seashore, is certainly among the best anybody dreams of and wants to live. The only drawback is the high real-estate prices; A real nice home with sea view for 2.5-3M is still expensive;
otherwise I can recommend this region to everybody who wants the best.
In Europe:
I suggest 3 places to consider.
Malaga area in Spain,
Cote d'Azur in France,
Amalfi-Capri in Italy.
Malaga is a little hot in summer, but in the remaining 9 months this desert climate area is just perfect. Actually, with dropped real-estate prices in Spain, this might be the 2009 best choice for the next 10 years. Less clean and safe than I expect. Take a look at the close but smaller places.
The Saint-Tropez to Monaco shoreline is the traditional "gentleman's" choice. You can get nice vacation homes for 1.5M. The climate is good (summer 27C, winter 10C), but nov-febr is cool-rainy and dull, not coming close to Ca. Plus, I dont like the crowded-overexpensive-unfriendly Cannes or Monaco style, the always-pay-for-sea-access, double-priced restaurants, the french pourboire tipping habit, oftentimes poor service.
Take a look a smaller places, like Mougin, Cap d'Antibes, San Juan.
Personally, I like the Saint-Tropez region best, even though a little far from airport.
Capri-Amalfi is beautiful, with great climate, exept in the hot midsummer months, and the tourist crowd. I rented nice homes for winter season and liked the italian way of living there. I hate the ocassional street-gang and ripoff-price mentality.
In Australia:
Sydney's Double-Bay area, or the Cairns-Great Coral Reef area is my choice. Just a little sleepy for my taste.
